    HiBoost Questions

    I appreciate cast manifolds...In fact Id prefer one. But Id like one with close to equal length runners. And Tubular headers require a lot of maintenence. Constant rewelding...You will be hard pressed to find one that wont break.

    what makes fire shoot out exhaust?

    My 98 Eclipse GST will do this between shift and sometimes at high RPM's....Its a result of turbo, an open exhaust, running rich, and very high engine temps. Like previously mentioned, the rally cars do it because of the anti-lag systems which come in several different forms.

    Carbon fiber hood...

    Im not sure if they make one for the protege's yet, but If I were going to get a CF hood, I would get a VIS Racing one. I had one for my eclipse and loved it. It was 100% Carbon Fiber. Most of the other ones out there are fiberglass and have a carbon fiber top layer. They are signifigantly...

    Turbo XS Type RFL

    agreed, but I thought it was the other way around. I thought *but could easily be wrong* that it came with all the washers in, and you could remove them as you need. I know that the one I have played with came with some washers, but it was a used peice. Not sure if TurboXS makes them or not...

    Window tinting and Silverstars

    I can tint a whole MP5 for less then 150 in Maine. And thats like 20% black with a warrantee. He wont give me a sticker for it, but he'll fix it if something happens. Look for private shops.
